Rahul Gandhi Criticizes Mohan Bhagwat’s Independence Remarks

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has condemned statements made by RSS Chief Mohan Bhagwat, who claimed that India achieved “true independence” only after the consecration of the Ram Temple in Ayodhya. Gandhi labeled the remarks as “treasonous” and argued that such statements undermine India’s Constitution and freedom struggle.

Gandhi’s criticism highlights the ongoing ideological clashes between the Congress party and the RSS. He emphasized that in other countries, similar statements would warrant legal action for undermining national history and constitutional values.

The controversy has intensified political debates in India, with various parties weighing in on the implications of Bhagwat’s remarks. The discourse underscores the deep-seated divisions regarding interpretations of India’s independence and national identity.
